I would have said my 06 up until 4 weeks ago when I lost the motor.  Up until that point it had been flawless

How many miles on her and what let loose ?

Althought it is not an Ultra, I have to agree that the 2005 SEEG (and 1004 of course) have proven to be the most reliable with the great 103's.

So many have had problems with the 110's, but I have to admit I love my '08 Duracell.  I have not had one single problem with it - (touch wood), and hopefully never will. :bananarock:

I was thinking of trading my '05 SEEG in on a '10 SESG, but quickly realized that I already have the better bike in the '05!  After all, it comes equipped with lowers and a TP and has that reliable 103 in it and I'm still not convinced that the 2-part frame is the way to go. :nixweiss:

At this point I'm not thinking of ever getting rid of my two dream bikes!

Oh, trust me...SESG is well worth it!!!   :2vrolijk_21:

I had an 06 and I have an 09.

To date I have to say the 06, but I am still working out an Electrical issue with the 09.
I think once all the bugs are worked out, they should be comparable.

It doesn't like water.

All bikes have failures at some point, doesn't make them unreliable.

I would say most reliable is the 07 SEUC orange and black I saw in Reno at the Kuryakin booth it still had the silver 110 badges on the heads and they weren't gold. But then it only has 200 miles on it. :huepfenlol2: Moral is they don't have any problems if you never ride them.

I was talking with the owner of Crank and Chrome in Holly Hill, FL this morning when I took my '05 103 in for a front tire and he said the 110's are having crankshaft issues but the 96's are having the same problem. It appears that the 2009 and 2010 motors aren't as reliable and it could be due to the government emission standards but will we ever know the truth? I'll keep my 103.
